    Virus appears to be making the rounds through Messenger - Beware

    Just got this from a buddy of mine stationed over in Iraq....

    Notice the characters in the link appearing to be "Photobucket". If you do not carefully read the link, it might fool you.

    did a quick look up and from what i heard (it was a blog post from someone who got hit) the links lead you to the photobukkets website which will ask you for your MSN E-mail and password.

    Basically its phishing your MSN, though could be doning other things as well but at least confirmible that it phishes MSN.
